Basement Waterproofing Photo Album: Waterproofing a Belleville, IL Basement
Homeowners wanted to install a sump pump in their basement in Belleville, IL, so the TripleSafe Sump Pump System was installed. This system assures protection from everyday problems with an ordinary pump. The TripleSafe can handle a heavy flow of water, thanks to a secondary pump included inside that will help eliminate the water if the first pump is unable to keep up with the amount of water that is entering it. It also features a removable airtight lid that reduces noise, prevents objects from falling in, and keeps moisture, insects, and odor from coming out of the sump. This system also includes an UltraSump battery backup system which turns on if the power goes out and effectively pumps out the water.
Next, the IceGuard Sump Pump Discharge System was installed. The patented design of this system automatically allows water to escape through its perforations when pipe terminations are blocked, usually by ice or snow. Lastly, a LawnScape Outlet was installed. This connects the discharge lines to a special extension sending water away from the foundation while camouflaging the end of the pipe. This basement will now stay dry all the time thanks to these systems!
Sump System
The TripleSafe combines three pumps in one unit to offer homeowners ultimate protection in the basement when leaks or flooding occurs.
Discharge Lines
IceGuard adds a drain at the base of the house to protect the system from backing up in the case of a sump pump discharge point that is clogged by snow or ice.
Discharge Outlet
LawnScape is designed to blend in with your lawn and landscaping. Its recessed installation eliminates a tripping hazard in your lawn for added peace of mind.
